  • Wouldn't equality be the both of us working? I didn't expect him to support me financially and he shouldn't expect me to do the same from him. Equality is the both of us pulling our weight, not wife doing all of the working, cooking and cleaning.

    • I probably forgot to include in my own post that just because a woman stays home and the man works doesn't mean they aren't equal. Each family has to have it's own sense of balance, and you just have to have a feel for where you belong in your own situation. No two families are alike, nor should they be.

    • I was talking in a broad sense, not your particular case. Women can choose to be housewives or work. Men don't have the option to stay at home without heavily being ostracised for "lazy bum".

      • This is not entirely true. Each family has their own way of cooperating and functioning, with no "right" way of doing things.

      • If you weren't talking about me then how does this post even belong here?

        The fact is, he IS a lazy bum. He doesn't do housework and I worked his job for 10 years before I got medical discharge, he doesn't do shit there either but at least he brings home a paycheck. Without it, I don't know how he is going to fund his bullshit and I'll be damned if I am going to have to cut expenses so he can keep his precious little sports car and thirst for new technology every time one comes out.
